| Description: |
Saint Patrick has become almost synonymous with Irish Christianity, being held as the only true apostle of Ireland, after single-handedly converting the country. This new translation of his works is accompanied by explanatory notes and Bible references. The introduction gives the background to Patrick the man, the believer and the missionary. |
| Synopsis: |
The only true apostle of Ireland who more or less converted the country single-handed? or a Christian bishop from the embattled edge of a crumbling empire? All that can really be known of Patrick comes from his authentic writings - the 'Confessio' and the 'Epistola' (Address to the Soldiers of Coroticus). Thomas O'Loughlin's engaging yet scholarly reflections on these fifth-century texts lead us into a greater understanding of the mind of Patrick, the man, believer and missionary. Explanatory notes woven through the translations illuminate a very different world and time; it is not long before we realize, however, that Patrick's theology is no less relevant to our own. |
